Alistair faces the consequences and George takes shocking action

Lilian is looking forward to the Cantering On event at The Stables and tells Paul about the promotional video they’ve made, featuring Justin as a ringmaster. Paul will be representing the vets practice at the event and Lilian would like him to judge the fancy dress competition. Justin is keen to give medals out but Paul would prefer to take out the competitive element to avoid disappointing the young riders. He agrees to come up with a plan they’ll all be happy with.

George, claiming illness, is holed up in his bedroom, with Will and Emma unable to coax him out. They try to convince George to go to the police, reminding him of the life-long consequences for Alice and Martha if she continues to take the blame. They remind him that he is a good person, they’d be so proud of him if he admitted what has happened, and this action might help him avoid prison. Reluctantly, George agrees to go with them to the police the next morning. But alone on his way to The Bull, he makes a call asking someone for help.

Hearing from Jazzer that Alistair is filled with trepidation over a visit from one of the Lovell James owners, Paul approaches Alistair in The Bull’s beer garden. Paul reassures Alistair that he hadn’t been the one to report his and his mum’s relationship to Head Office. Even though it had been a shock to him, he wouldn’t ever want them to get into trouble. Alistair continues to worry about his meeting with Don James.
